Bhelpuri, it reminds us of Indian street food.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Indian
street foods are very popular among men, women, children, old and young, and
even among people who have come from different countries for work or have
settled here.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Popular
among street foods are some like Bhelpuri, Chaat (can find different kinds of
chats), PaniPuri/Golgappas, Pav Bhaji and so many more to name them. The list
will go on and on.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Thinking of
street food like Bhelpuri, a smack of the lips is first what comes at the
desire and thought of it. Making this at home is easy and you find it more
flavoursome and tastier with all the hygiene and the cleanliness that is there.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Watch the video below </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="336" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6f9vd8nLKXU" width="488" youtube-src-id="6f9vd8nLKXU"></iframe></div><br /><p><br /></p>Gouri Guhahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16378953993199370629noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139246008610764090.post-50900370924423406312021-07-05T03:44:00.001-07:002021-07-05T03:44:38.517-07:00Vegetable Utthappam/ Desi Pancake --- Tiffin Special<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu1-e-YObEMCInBLE2iV5II8CRxHhU35qRTsV1h23QpmojUeNynVD2B_lOfXISuNFE35_mu4G0-OfFDquwhpe4FvEJwcKy7dJjCzZ2idjKeD5uk6fALQYQluc0r9PvjJ8VttToQ8EGkS4/s961/1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="961" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu1-e-YObEMCInBLE2iV5II8CRxHhU35qRTsV1h23QpmojUeNynVD2B_lOfXISuNFE35_mu4G0-OfFDquwhpe4FvEJwcKy7dJjCzZ2idjKeD5uk6fALQYQluc0r9PvjJ8VttToQ8EGkS4/w400-h320/1.JPG" width="400"></a></div><br><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.65pt; margin-bottom: 10.0pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tiffin and snacks are

Today I made some Medhu Vadas for evening snacks. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana";"></span><br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Easy and simple to make and tasty to eat.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Home-made food is always in the comfort zone in the family. But people also enjoy food in restaurants or road-side food stalls. Eating home-made items gives a different pleasure and food from outside has its own pleasure to spread as they are savoured.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Anyway, after a long time today’s Medhu Vada finds a place in my blog.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana";"></span><br>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I say ‘CHEERS” to me and tap my back for making a comeback after such a long span.</span><br>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sometimes
a simple and healthy curry can make a lot of difference when added to the menu
chart of the day. Taste buds at times yearn for a curry that is light and goes
well with rotis and parathas served hot from the hot tawa sitting on the flame
and burning, to give the best from its top when its bottom is hot and burning.
There is not much to talk about the tawa or the roti or paratha but more to
tell about a simple dish which is a storehouse of taste.</span></span></div>
